these operating instructions handy for future reference.
Safety
1. Power source—Connect the unit to a power source of the type
described in these instructions or as marked on the unit.
2. Polarization—The unit is equipped with a polarized power plug where
one blade is wider than the other. This safety feature
ensures that the plug fits into your household AC outlet only one way. If
the plug doesn’t fit one way, try reversing it. If the plug still doesn’t fit,
contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to
defeat the safety purpose of the plug.
3. Power cord protection—Route the AC power supply cord so that it
Getting started
will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it. Never
take hold of the plug or cord with wet hands. Always grasp the plug
body firmly when connecting and disconnecting it.
4. Overloading—When connecting the AC power supply cord, be
careful not to overload the household AC outlet, extension cord, or
outlet from any other device as this can result in fire or electric shock.
5. Nonuse periods—Turn the unit off when it is not in use. Unplug the
unit from the household AC outlet if it is not to be used for a long time.
Unplug the unit during lightning storms.
6. Attachments and accessories—Use only the attachments and
accessories recommended in these operating instructions.
Installation
Placement
1. Ventilation—Situate the unit so that it receives proper ventilation. Do
not install in a confined space such as a bookcase or cabinet. Allow at
least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear of the unit. To prevent
the risk of electric shock or fire due to overheating ensure curtains and
other materials do not obstruct the unit’s ventilation.
2. Foreign material—Ensure objects and liquids do not get into the unit.
Avoid exposing the unit to excessive smoke, dust, mechanical
vibration, and shock.
3. Magnetism—Situate the unit away from equipment and devices that
generate strong magnetic fields.
4. Stacking—Do not place heavy objects on top of this unit.
5. Surface—Place the unit on a flat, level surface.

characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutes may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
4. Safety check—After repairs or service, ask the servicer to perform
safety checks to confirm that the unit is in proper working condition.
Do not place the
unit on amplifiers or
equipment that may
become hot.
The heat can damage the unit.

Digital output
[DVD-A] [DVD-V]
Change the settings when you have connected equipment through this
unit’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal (OPTICAL).
PCM Down Conversion
Select how to output audio with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz or
88.2 kHz.
≥Select “Yes” if the equipment you connect cannot process signals with a
sampling frequency of 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz.
No (Factory preset): Output as 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz
Yes: Converted to 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz
[Note]
≥Make sure that “Digital Audio Output” setting (➡ page 21) is “On”.
≥Signals are converted to either 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz despite the above
settings if the signals have a sampling frequency of over 96 kHz, or the
disc has copy protection.
≥Some equipment cannot handle sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz, even
if they can handle 96 kHz. Read your equipment’s operating instructions
for details.
Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround
Bitstream (Factory preset for Dolby Digital):
Select if the equipment you connected can decode the signal.
PCM (Factory preset for DTS Digital Surround):
Select if the equipment you connected cannot decode the signal.
IMPORTANT
If the equipment you connected cannot decode the signal, the
setting must be changed to PCM. If not, signals the equipment cannot
process will be output by this unit, causing high levels of noise which
can damage your hearing and the speakers.
Speaker setting
Change speaker presence and size a, delay time b, and channel balance
c to suit the speakers you have connected.
These settings are not necessary when you select “2-channel” (only two
speakers are connected).

Reference
Glossary
Bitstream
This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel)
before it is decoded into its various channels.
Decoder
A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This is
called decoding.
Dolby Digital
This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories.
Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multichannel audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on
one disc using this method.
Dolby Pro Logic
A surround system where a 4-channel audio track is recorded as 2
channels and then is restored to 4 channels for play. The surround channel
is monaural and can reproduce up to 7 kHz.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world.
There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects
are possible.
Dynamic range
Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can
be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound
before distortion occurs.
Film and video
DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. Usually, film is
recorded at 24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at, while
video is recorded at 30 frames per second.
Frame still and field still
Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving picture.
There are about 30 frames shown each second.
One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows these fields
one after the other to create frames.
A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is made up
of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear blurred, but overall
quality is high. A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information
of a frame still so picture quality is lower.
Interlace and progressive output
NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (I) scan lines,
whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines. This is
called 480P. The video signals output from this unit’s COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, P
than if the signals were output from the VIDEO OUT terminal or
S VIDEO OUT terminal.
B, PR) allow you to enjoy higher quality pictures
I/P/B
MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with DVDVideo, codes frames using these 3 picture types.
I: Intra coded picture
This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when adjusting
the picture.
P: Predictive coded picture
This picture is calculated based on past I or P-pictures.
B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture
This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I and P-pictures
so it has the lowest volume of information.
Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)
These are uncompressed digital signals, similar to those found on CDs.
Playback control (PBC)
If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information
with menus (called menu play in these instructions).
